Overall Ratings & Reviews Econo Lodge near The Domain - The Arboretum

All is clean there but be careful because homeless people tend to be near

Worst hotel

Wear shoes in the room, my son was walking around room in socks & his socks were black as night when we went to take them off. Room smelt like urine. Sign was about to fall apart. Toilet & toilet seat was about to fall over. Pictures on website are overrated.

Weird experience. Was told they needed to you charge a $100 deposit and It must be fifty dollars in 2 separate transactions. I got into the room and it must have been in the 90 or 100s. I was soaked in sweat just being in there, and I work outside. Gap under the door was big enough for a cat or any sized rodents to join ya in bed.

It was a nice lodge loved the pictures especially the one Welcome to Austin. Near a great seafood place hook and reel and Jim's home cooking. Good pricing for 3 nights. Would definitely go back if going to Austin. Wish I had some photos would share them

Nothing

I did not read reviews before booking this hotel which is a mistake I will NEVER make again. I checked in about 3:30 and went into my room where I ate something. Afterwards, I went into the restroom and there was mold on the ceiling. When I raised the concern with front desk staff I was told “it’s impossible for there to be mold but I will come look” the manager entered my room and said that it was just mildew and he could paint over it to kill it. At this point he said that he would come finish the PAINTING OVER IT in the morning without offering to move me to another room despite my telling him that I am highly allergic to both mold and mildew and there were now paint fumes in my room. Later I began having an allergic reaction so I called and asked to be moved to a different room (not even requesting an upgrade). I was laughed at and hung up on. About 30 minutes later just after 7:30 PM, they called me and gave me an ultimatum: stay to be dealt with in the morning OR check out and leave the premises. I chose the latter because I was already having an allergic reaction and I did not want to end up in the hospital. This morning when I contacted Expedia to process my refund they contacted him and he changed his story, now saying it was just a stain and not mold or mildew at all. When I called the front desk to complain he told me “If you are so allergic to mold and mildew you should just stay home instead of going to hotels” before very abruptly hanging up on me.

Staff was friendly, rooms clean, and the one time I had trouble getting back in my room, they were quick to help me get my card swapped

If you are looking for a cheap room in Austin, go with this place. It is decent. Not a great neighborhood, but the parking lot is fairly secure, they actually serve you a breakfast in the morning, and the staff is friendly. It is decently clean. This is a dive motel, but it is best in class for Austin.

Definitely a no-frills Motel. It was convenient to our activity in Austin. The room and bathroom were clean. The beds were comfortable however, the pillows seemed well worn and flat and uncomfortable. Price was reasonable.

Bugs everywhere, not a clean facility, walls are paper thin. Staff is not friendly. If you don't mind staying in an unkept property

The outside looks very rundown. And lots of people hanging outside, looked very sketchy. The room looked renovated but I saw a bug on the bed. We immediately left and went back to ask for a refund but we were told it was too late. We didn’t feel safe staying there just I was ok with losing my money.

The room was old, there were permanent stains on the door frames, the toilet seat had burn marks even though it's a non smoking room. The sheets were clean and the A/C worked fine. Not worth the price

The floor was extremely dirty seem like it was swept but not mopped. Multiple stains on the walls and some of the sheets you only get two pillows and they're very flat. Bedding was very warm but with weak AC you don't need to use all of them. Speaking of AC, they probably should clean the filter. It look like a rug sitting on top of it. Same goes for bathroom fan, toilet and tub was clean. Water pressure was nice. Decent hot water

One hour after we checked in, the owner informed us that on our second day of stay there would be no electricity at the hotel for five hours. They refused to change our booking or to give us a refund. We checked out of the hotel right away anyways. Seriously not worth it. There are much better hotels at the same price range in Austin. They’re probably not going to return our deposit too. Avoid this place!

Poor location to get in and out from. Near Interstate Highway

Smelled pot everyday, I’m allergic to the smell and the material! The management didn’t care, the female manager asked me if I put everything back and the room was cleaned. Like how rude!!!! The breakfast was horrible, the waffles are great but the sausage was awful, hard and over cooked!!

The hotel is full of people who are partying all night and the management is absolutely horrible.

The hotel is terrible room sofa was disgusting tore floor from room and bathroom was not clean odor was horrible bedding was ? Washed and wrinkle

just 1 bad towel that should no longer be in given to guests
